On vanishing of $p$-adic logarithms

The $p$-adic logarithm can be computed $$ \begin{align*} \log_p(2) &= \frac{1}{p-1}\log_p(2^{p-1})\\ &=\frac{1}{p-1}\sum_{n\geq 1}(-1)^{n-1} \frac{(2^{p-1}-1)^n}{n} \\ &\equiv -pF(p)\mod p^2. \end{ali …

Is every sequence that looks like an AP really an AP?

For each $n$, the differences $a_{n+1}-a_n$, $a_{n+2}-a_{n+1}$, and $a_{n+2}-a_n$ can only be divisible by powers of $2$ and primes less than or equal to $c$. Since $$ \frac{a_{n+2}-a_{n+1}}{a_{n+2}- …

Sequences with integral means

Here are some bounds on the stable value $r(n)$, as well as the number of terms of the sequence that need to be calculated. The short version is that $$ \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\sqrt{n}+O(1)\leq r(n)\leq \f …
